Ask Me Anything!

 



I recently watched an "Ask Me Anything!" video and found it very useful. At the same time, one of the most common danger zones for speakers of other languages is precisely the matter of asking questions in English. Nobody wants to feel impertinent, prying (adj. showing too much curiosity about other people's affairs), or even unintelligent for not knowing something.
Problem solved! I'm preparing an "Ask Me Anything!" video for my YouTube channel. Take this is an invitation to practise asking real-life questions that are relevant to you. What are your main issues with English? Is there any aspect of using English in your daily life that you're stuck with right now? Your question(s) can be general and broad (adj. covering a wide scope of subjects or areas), or specific and particular to your current situation and needs.
Simply comment below 馃憞 with your question(s) and I'll be answering as many as I can in a video very soon!
For some quick revision on how to ask questions in English, watch this and this.
If you're interested in finding out more about my work and community, take a look at this overview of my ongoing English improvement program, Confident English Training.
Ask away! (Go ahead and ask whatever you want). Good questions are helpful to so many people, and I'm excited about this!
Speak soon ✨

La meditaci贸n - preguntas y respuestas

Image
La intenci贸n es que este blog sea el producto de una colaboraci贸n entre ustedes y yo – nosotros J - por lo que se me ocurren 5 preguntas que podr铆an surgir en relaci贸n a la pr谩ctica y a mi, la autora, las cuales tratar茅 de contestar lo mejor que pueda, pero adem谩s me encantar铆a que en los comentarios agregues tus preguntas, e igualmente, tratar茅 de contestarlas, y si quieres agregar algo o expresar alguna idea adicional, por favor hazlo: te escucho J ¿C贸mo funciona y para qu茅 sirve la meditaci贸n? Bueno, es importante aclarar que aunque hayan muchos beneficios, los practicantes no meditamos con ese fin, o sea que al sentarnos no hay una meta por alcanzar, sino que nos sentamos porque disfrutamos de hacerlo. Simple y sencillamente, meditamos porque nos gusta. Lo cual no significa que no resulten importantes beneficios . Al contrario, la pr谩ctica de la meditaci贸n es transformadora , y los cambios que produce son m煤ltiples y de gran profundidad - cient铆ficamente compr...

Happy New Year!

Hello! Let's start by talking about intention first. Dawn is a great time to reflect upon and lay out one's intentions for the day, and what better time than the dawning of a brand New Year to set out one's intentions for the 12 months ahead. So what are my aspirations for 2017? Well - basically - more of the same, really - please 馃槉 By this I mean: 1) More teaching - not in quantity but in continuation. I love my job 馃挅 2) More practising - sitting, walking, eating - more integration of the practice into my life overall - P.S. more kindness 馃檹 2) More sharing - here I do mean quantity, hence this brand new blog. I want to share more about Mindfulness 馃挀馃挄馃挆馃挐 - in the classroom and in life. Hopefully, you'll be drawn to contribute with comments and ideas on how I can put this aspiration into action more effectively 馃槉 3) More cooking delicious, cruelty-free vegan food 馃槏 4) More cycling - healthy body, healthy mind 馃挌 5) More walking and ...

On Acceptance

Image
Remember Supernanny Jo Frost and her catchphrase, "that's unacceptable"? "Unacceptable behaviour" was one of the countless things I learnt about during the decade I lived in the UK back in the noughties. When it comes to adults, the matter of accountability for one's behaviour became a fundamental piece of understanding, as if my entire life up until then had transpired in an incongruent, incomplete jigsaw puzzle without any awareness of it, and I'd suddenly found sufficient pieces to make much more sense of the whole. There was such joy, such happiness in this understanding, such relief, in fact, because here, in Latin America in general and in Mexico in particular, those pieces are simply missing. There's no rule of law here. In these parts of the world, we still rely heavily on religion for the teaching and learning of moral and ethical conduct, and the government's function is... well... far removed from the question of justice . A c...
